About this listen
For the first time EVER, global superstars One Direction are releasing their 100% official autobiography, offering a new, intimate insight into their lives as never before seen or heard!
In their first in-depth autobiography, pop sensations Niall, Zayn, Liam, Harry and Louis tell the story of their lives. From nervously auditioning for the X Factor and meeting each other for the first time, to filming their hit movie This Is Us and releasing their bestselling third album, Midnight Memories, it really has been one incredible journey. For the first time, the boys’ loyal fans will be given an unprecedented insight into all of it, from their humble beginnings and lives before the X Factor, to recording their first single, touring the world, winning awards, breaking records, and much, much more.
What has it been like for them? What did they really think of each other when they first met? What inspires their song-writing? How do they handle life on the road and long breaks away from those they care about and love? And what do they think is next for them as a band who have achieved so much so quickly?
Taking you behind the scenes of the creation of their music, their tours and their incredible friendship in their very own words, One Direction are ready to lay themselves bare in a way we’ve never heard before.
Get ready for the incredible story of a lifetime from an incredible set of lads.

Jennette McCurdy was six years old when she had her first acting audition. Her mother’s dream was for her only daughter to become a star, and Jennette would do anything to make her mother happy. So she went along with what Mom called “calorie restriction." She endured extensive at-home makeovers while Mom chided, “Your eyelashes are invisible, okay? You think Dakota Fanning doesn’t tint hers?” She was even showered by Mom until age sixteen while sharing her diaries, email, and all her income. In I’m Glad My Mom Died, Jennette recounts all this in unflinching detail.

They were the last great band of the '60s and the first great band of the '70s. They rose, somewhat unpromisingly, from the ashes of the Yardbirds to become one of the biggest-selling rock bands of all time - and eventually paid the price for it, with disaster, drug addiction, and death.

Story
Matt Pinfield is the ultimate music fan. He's the guy who knows every song, artist, and musical riff ever recorded, down to the most obscure band's B-side single on its vinyl-only EP import. As a child, music helped Pinfield make sense of the world. Later he would approach his music idols after concerts and explain why he loved their music. As an adult, rock music inspired his career, fueled relationships, and, at times, became a life raft.

Story
In the second half of the 20th century New York was the source of new sounds, including the Greenwich Village folk scene, punk and new wave, and hip-hop. But as the end of the millennium neared, cutting-edge bands began emerging from Seattle, Austin, and London, pushing New York further from the epicenter. The behemoth music industry, too, found itself in free fall, under siege from technology. Then 9/11/2001 plunged the country into a state of uncertainty and war.

Story
In 1992, Victor Bockris' celebrated biography was the first to recognize Richards' pivotal role in the legend of the Rolling Stones. Now that book on rock's most incredible survivor has been expanded. Here are the true facts behind Richards' battles with his demons: the women, the drugs and the love-hate relationship with Jagger. His struggle with heroin and his status as the rock star most likely to die in the 1970s. His scarcely believable rebirth as a family man in the 1980s. Illuminated with revealing quotes and thoughtful insights into the man behind the band that goes on forever.

In this incisive memoir, Steve Lukather tells the complete Toto story.

I HATE ONE DIRECTION!
What made the experience of listening to One Direction: Who We Are the most enjoyable?
oomg. im so sorry for writing dat. just wanted to get attention. ok so most memorable moment is ALL OF IT. the boys hav written books before, but to hear them take d effort to make an audiobook n voice their views is really amazing.
What other book might you compare One Direction: Who We Are to and why?
there is nothing to compare to them. but i will say their previous book, One Direction: Where We Are is just another masterpiece. incredible stuff! and i cldnt possibly be more grateful to have them in my life
What about One Direction’s performance did you like?
everything about it! you can only imagine how hard their life is, with the writing of songs, touring, recording songs, interviews.. leaving very less time for self and family. and the way they have been keeping up is incredible. and this book just brings forward the fact that they know where they are going, and they know where they come from.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
umm.. there are two parts. one is Harry's experience in Ghana. it moved me to tears to see the father of the child beg harry in such a manner.. i cried for the entire night. and the other moment was when louis described how hard it was for his mother to let go of him so early in his life, unaware and unprepared that she will not be able to see her baby for such a long long time.
Any additional comments?
to all the people wondering if this is a bud buy, i forbid u from doubting the fact that this is a gud stuff. because it is incredible. just buy it, and be moved, once again, by their journey and their incredible lives :)

Great listen !
In the autobiography, you can really tell how well grounded these boys are despite the amount of fame they have at the moment. They're just a few great & really humble guys who happen to be really talented and lucky for all the amazing opportunities they've been given at such a young age. It's good to know that they don't take anything for granted and they're also trying to do some good for the world while in the spotlight.
